The Plan - Part 4: “Children: everyone IS one, and some people have some”
March 14 & 17, 2024


And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

Genesis 1:28 (ESV)



Fruitful, Multiply, and Fill.


Be Fruitful.


Generational Transfer.


Train up a child in the way he should go;
even when he is old he will not depart from it.

Proverbs 22:6 (ESV)

Fill.



THREEFOLD PLAN FOR PARENTING:



1. BE FRUITFUL


2. MULTIPLY


Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother” (this is the first commandment with a promise), “that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.” Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

Ephesians 6:1-4 (ESV)


3. FILL THE EARTH




Discipline


Provision


Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!

Matthew 7:9-11 (ESV)
